"Too-loud-to-be-dreaming rock quartet Soccer Mom unleash their own noisy, driven, pop gems of streamlined distortion." - The Boston Phoenix

"With liberal doses of sludge, screeching feedback, dischord and strong melodies, Soccer Mom issued one of the years most arresting and addictive listens." - The Ash Gray Proclamation

"Soccer Mom have a jangle that weighs heavy, at times sneaking into the realm of post-rock, while their dream-pop tendencies are too immersed in noise and impatience to float without direction." - Exploding In Sound

"Warm, loud, and fuzzy in all the right ways, Soccer Mom make music to submerge one's brain into, just perfect guitar music to disappear into and never look back." - The Creative Intersection

"This, their debut, is a stunning, guitar-driving, neo-shoegaze set, but their blistering live show is usually even better." - Bradley's Almanac

"Sonically superb. Long sustaining notes paint out the walls, while a buzzy bass marches down the middle, jaunting out its own fuzzy, buzzy melodies." - CD On Songs

"This debut EP manages to bring in just the right amount of ugly noise with a catchy framework. " - Brainwashed

"There's no denying the band's strong '90s influences — with a distinct New England color — but a listen to the new EP proves Soccer Mom owns it." - Nerve.com

"This is a really great EP that delivers on the bands promise of contrasting sounds and styles. There's melody and feedback, rapid drum fills and dreamy vocals." - The 405

"Soccer Mom are not afraid to embrace their shoegaze influences whilst experimenting with something new." - The Art Of Stuffing

"Clouds of melody, both of the real and phantom variety, wrap around thick basslines and all-business drums like crawling ivy to produce a sum greater than the individual parts." - Michael Fournier, yourband.info

"The perfect balance between harmony and distortion, melody and debilitating feedback." - Brendan T, SONIC MASALA

"Soccermom sets off new parts and bridges with a patient efficacy; powershrugs into exuberant crescendoes with nonchalance. Everything about Soccermom's music seems informed not only by the best music of two decades past, but also a measured, casual attitude toward crafting good music." - Jay Breitling, Clicky Clicky Music

"You Are Not Going to Heaven really continues to impress with a great melding of jangly indie-rock/pop and subtle jabs of harsher/woozy feedback." - Built On A Weak Spot

"A couple parts shoegaze, one part jangle electric, one part alienated loner dirty fuckup sound… The drums are massive, the vocals are buried in that layered way, the guitar sustained forever… Utterly perfect timing." - Jason Dean, 7Inches
